New Data Governance Act

The Data Governance Act (DGA) creates a legal framework for access to (industrial) data (e.g. mobility and health data) and its re-use.

This Practitioner's Guide offers those involved a practice-related introduction to the new and complex provisions of the DGA. It shows how companies can use the new law to their advantage and what obligations it also imposes on public sector bodies.
